This week has been another where we have taken time to celebrate the achievements of the incredible youngsters we have here in Harlaw Academy.

  • On Wednesday we had the school summer concert and art show
  • On Thursday we held our wider achievement awards event
  • On Friday it was our annual school sports day
  • Over the weekend we had groups out taking part in Duke of Edinburgh expeditions

Rather than write much I have created 2 slide shows for you to enjoy:

I also want to highlight the fact we have a lot of things back up and running and have attached a link to the current clubs we are offering:

Finally for this post I want to note a couple of important things for our school community:

  • Our new S1 pupils are with us this week.  It will be fantastic having you in your new school for a few days and we hope you will be made to feel welcome and look forward to bringing your new fresh ideas to help us keep improving your school.
  • I have reminded our staff that we will be keeping the pace of learning high right through to 3.05 on Friday 5th July.  I have asked parents not to take youngsters off school for early holidays as we need them in school and working hard if they are to be the best they can be.
  • In August the teachers come back on Monday 19th and that day as well as Tuesday 20th are in-service days for teachers.  We look forward to welcoming the pupils back to classes on Wednesday 21st August.
